Saturdays wedding at West Heath in Sevenoaks. Another lovely lady, Joanna. The roses we used in the table centrepices and bridesmaid posy were new: quick sand - the palest pinky earth tones were just fantastic. White hydrangeas - yes, even in April!

Fridays wedding was at the most beautiful thatched cottage in Shipbourne. The bride and groom were just delightful, and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with them both. Thank you to Trish and Tony for your kind words: Wanted to say the flowers were “ Blooming Perfect” absolutely stunning, a real shame they don’t last forever! From the porch, kitchen, my bouquet down to the buttonholes, which I haven’t seen the pics but hear they were presented beautifully.  You helped make our day one of the best, thank you...

what a manic weekend here! 2 weddings and mothers day gone mad! This was the busiest mothers day for most florists in the south east to date. Due to it falling a little later than previous, flowers were more reasonably priced, and much more varieties available. We saw some beautiful scented stocks, viburnham snowball, and gorgeous roses in the palest of pinks and sand shades. A few pictures from the weekend.

A filled rustic basket of muscari bulbs - what a wonderful gift to give on mothers day.

a new outlet...

for those of you in the Bidborough, Speldhurst and Penshurst area, you may have noticed some signs for a fantastic new farm shop! Juddwood Farm, Hayesden Lane. They sell their own lamb, beef and pork and have a beautiful selection of vegetables, cakes (they are gorgeous) and jams etc. They have only been open 2 weeks, but it's well worth a visit - the meat looks so impressive. I have just taken today some extra tall black-jack tulips, blue iris, scented stocks and some nice little spring bulb arrangements. Give them a try.

A lovely sunny day...

I am starting to think about Mothers Day looming - just over 2 weeks away! Today we had some amazing tulips arrive called black jack - a gorgeous deep purple: stunning. To pre-order any arrangements, beit baskets of bulbs, country garden centrepieces, or spring flower hand tied arrangements, please let me know as soon as possible. I shall have a few examples coming up in the next week so check back to see what goodies we will have on offer.

March Weddings...

another busy wedding-weekend in the gorgeous village of Goudhurst. Even though spring is not yet here (although today we could be mistaken!) we used all the wonderful true spring flowers. Viburnham snowball was amazing, scented stocks, and delicate freesia, all in the palest shades of cream, green and white.

The bride, Katy, had a mix of table centrepieces with long and rull arrangements with candles, and then a circular table centre filled with scented wax flower, freesia, hydrangea and white blousy roses. They did look very pretty indeed!

Love them of hate them! I have to say I love hyacinth flowers, they are so delicate and look so spring-like! the thing to avoid is to let them go over - the smell can be really awful. So beware - as soon as they flowers start to shrivel and look tired, store them away for next year!
